Goal was 5K words 2400 words in Thunders Dome (one brawl, one entry; not gonna count the entry I submitted in the first week of the month because I can't remember if I'd toxxed by then).  3500 words on novel stuff. I have a whole other chapter I'm finishing up today, but I'm still working at it and I'm already over my goal. Next month I will for 7k, dunno if it's easier if I make another post about it at the start of the month

I have a book of ones that could easily generate a 1000 word story, so NUTS TO YOU, mod. I'm having a good month so far, looking forward to having this short story done so goons can tell me how poo it is

hit 5K without really noticing it this month, which is good because I was swamped with moving house and such. Mostly I did thunderdome words but I've also been puttering away at a disgustingly self indulgent thing while procrastinating editing a short story. 1800 words: http://writocracy.com/thunderdome/?week=296 1400 words: http://writocracy.com/thunderdome/?story=6517&title=Apparitional+Experience 2700 words on selfindulgia  total: 5900 words give or take. for 5000 again next month and 1000 of those must be the next draft of my short story

1500 words in TD https://thunderdome.cc/?story=6598&title=Messiah+and+the+Devout rewrote an old story, no idea how much is still the same from the first draft but it's nearly twice as long now and I did a lot of editing (and need to do a lot more...). Gonna count that as 2k words.  working on draft 3 of another short story, got about 3200 words into that all in all, well over 5K words for 5k in july

I did three thunderdomes this month (I can track down links if i absolutely have to), which technically puts me at my goal, but more excitingly, I started a project that's going to consist of a bunch of interconnected vignettes surrounding an inexplicable phenomenon in an ordinary town. This will be a "living" document that I update with my monthly progress. For future reference, at the time of posting, this doc is 3885 words long. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZbfdUh_CdrrDcyrSyV6Fl_4dgq5pGWrpBvpm8uS1_4g/edit?usp=sharing And finally, I decided to take a crack at writing a short erotica this month! You'll have to take my word for it that there are words here, as well as a beginning, middle, and erm ending. It was an interesting challenge to be sure.  that in August I will add at least 5K to the project. Additionally, I will write at least two flash fiction stories.

Sitting Here posted:I wrote a couple thunderdomes. I opened this doc every goddamned day this month and spent the better part of my days off working on it. My wordcount for that project currently sits at 16079. Additionally, I wrote a Thunderdome brawl this month, which had a word count of 1015 or so words. You have have noticed that totals out to 17094 words, which is fewer than the 18889 words I need to be at to fulfill my toxx. I'm gonna write those last words tomorrow whether im banned or not. I guess if i'm not banned i'll update my links, and if I am banned i will at some point unban and toxx for more words like a dumb idiot. I'm just too tired to poo poo out a bunch of useless, un-editable trash words for no reason except to avoid a toxx. long project link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZbfdUh_CdrrDcyrSyV6Fl_4dgq5pGWrpBvpm8uS1_4g/edit?usp=sharing brawl link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18s4U_upOdcvdGEoOA7tWsdDAS5z0Q_LN_E_14w3j_t8/edit?usp=sharing EDIT: Okay, new count in that doc is presently 17926 words, which puts me slightly over my goal. for 7K words in October.

i will be screaming in at the last conceivable minute with my wordcount, as is my SOP remember writers, normies don't give a gently caress about your process or output and are offended by the very concept of a "focused writer".
